9,000!

Sorry, I kinda wanted to commemorate my 9,000th post on this site, instead of using it on commenting on my favourite breakfast cereal, or something.

If you were to look at your post count on this forum, what emotions would you have? Would you be happy, or more concerned about possible evidence of internet addiction?

Do you feel you've made good use of your posts, or would you be embarrassed to look at the stuff you've written over the years?

Discuss all things post-y, I guess. :monster:

Some times I ponder what I'm doing with my life when I have more posts than some people who have been here since the early 00s, but then I get over that and post more. Some good quality posts, and some just straight up spam and one ups because I need the extra lives.

To be fair, I'm not much of a poster these days, but the first year and a half I was a member. Jeez.

Tryin' hard to be a cool Internet guy, eh?

Id rather lurk in chat than post in the forums, pretty sure my count reflects that :D

It's dropped to an average of 2.82 per day, but that's still an impressive average considering how many years it's been.

Considering that there was a stretch of like 3-4 years where I was super inactive my post count probably says I'm a gigantic nerd.

I don't even know what mine is, but I think it's above 20k now. It's debatable whether that or my join date is more horrifying.

I posted a lot of the same things 10-15 years ago that I would still post (as a friend of mine says, I was a grumpy old man right out of the womb), so I don't mind seeing older posts.

I have somewhere around 8000 which I think is a healthy amount.

Recently One of my older threads was repped where I made a series of clever images and jokes and I noticed I had a tendency to over explain my jokes when I was younger. It made me cringe and I was half tempted to edit the whole thread and wipe my shame out of existence but I let it be.

I've been here for about a decade and I don't think I've broken 2,000 yet.

EDIT: Well. I was about 900 off.

Most of my posts have come in the last 4 years. That's why mine is so low compared to my join date. There! It's out now! Everyone hates me!!!!

When they use to hide post counts was it really to combat elitism or was it to avoid the shame and embarassment of spending so much time posting on a FF forum?

It's not bad, but it's not as strong comparatively as it once was, due to low activity on my part.

I'm coming up on 20k soon enough, and I'm both excited and ashamed that it only took me 4 years to get.

Christ, I've not even managed 6000 in the same time.

I'm only still posting so I can get to EOFF Immortal status for my rep.

That will be the end of the game. Conglaturation. This story is happy end. Now go and rest our heroes.

Well if you're leaving when you get to EoFF Immortal then I'm not repping you anymore. That way you NEVER leave. :mwahaha:

Yeah, I've had my eye on that EoFF Immortal status for a while but they only keep changing to different things

Pumpkin
12-11-2015, 10:38 PM
There's actually a way you can check. I've reached it like twice over now

Just go under General Settings under Settings and it'll say Reputation Level and your rep level should be there

Am I not supposed to reveal this? Am I going to get killed off now?

Pumpkin

staff is disqualified from this dickwaving contest because of the staff forum. I'm sure it is a complete spamfest, full of double posts and one-word replies.

If I go by my display postcount it shows 14,577. If I count all the posts displayed from my profile in the find latest posts section is adds up to 14,658. The find latest posts doesn't show posts from any of the staff forums I've posted in, or the old versions of the feedback forums before it went private. There was a time where I posted heavily in those forums and a year or two where I mostly posted in the staff forums, so that probably adds a few thousand posts to my count :/

Over 10 years to get to this low amount. I've consistently averaged 0.5 posts a day for a very long time now.

Congrats, Formal! I don't think I have managed half that amount in all my time posting in forums. Or may be I have, if spam forums count; idk.

Looking back at my own post count, which I think is under 400, I don't really feel a thing. It's not surprising. Right now I average around 0.2 posts a day. Given all that, I doubt there is anything particularly embarrassing that I have done around here.

If my maths is right (which it probably isn't, seeing as I'm an English student) I've been averaging approximately 3.7 posts per day.

I'm pleased with that. :)

You can check on your profile how many you average (at least that's what I think it is), you're at 4.

Half a year and you're almost at half of mine. I don't know how you guys do it!

This is what I do in the evening instead of going to the pub. Except on Mondays, when I go to the pub.
